Right wing comedy or comedians are discriminated against.

They hide...if they exist at all. I only know of one who is pro Brexit and he's hardly on TV...can't remember his name.

I think the last known right wing comic that appeared regularly that I can think of is Jim Davidson.

There's one more but I can't remember his name and he hasn't been on TV for decades.

I would see Jim Davidson as an old-fashioned comedian making fun of Black people, pakistanis and Gays. Not very nice really, although we should all be less sensitive and laugh at each other more. It's good for us all not to be afraid of words.

A right wing comedian would mock left wing and 'liberal' attitudes and the absurdity of current trends correctness'

Well he's right wing. I don't have issues with jokes about different groups. ...it's not even about 'groups'...it's some protected 'classes'. For example women are allowed to make jokes about men all the time....but vice versa and you're the devil.

I use to agree with that idea about avoiding groups but now I see it as being one of the tenets of political correctness that has created this increasingly authoritarian society.

Steve Hughes, and Australian, is worth a watch. Very 'woke'.

Seeing as this is seven years ago, he was very ahead of his time:

Been in a room in Sydney with Steve having an open therapy session with me and the small audience that he was trying his material out on. Was a very bizarre experience but enthralling at the same time. I won’t go into too much detail as it isn’t really fair on him but he was telling us about how he was recently sectioned and talking to us openly and answering questions. A very clever and funny man. But he clearly has his flaws like all of us.

Hrolf, you’ll enjoy his piece on being offended. It goes well with what you speak about a few posts up.

I have always believed that a fear of words should never be encouraged. I am happy for people to tell White person jokes. I positively embrace it. Others should adopt an equally dismissive attitude toward 'banter' and accept that we all do it.
I think the difference with Davidson and people of that ilk is that he was telling 'minority' jokes when we lived very much in a bullying culture where minorities were a lot smaller in number and often the target of systematic abuse. It was no different to being abused for being fat, ginger or short.
Nowadays we are in a different world where we need to reject the scary reality of obsessive political correctness and redress the balance of tolerance.

Minorities bully minorities. The crime statistics of different groups shows the realities...back in the day and in the present. Most people though just want to get on.

I grew up on Stockwell Park Estate in the 80s. It was approximately 11 percent white. Before we got out of there in 87 I had received a broken finger and a three inch scar on my skull both from separate posse attacks....one of which I was lucky to escape with my life.

There is no, 'living in a separate world' Hrolf......it's called 'moving to a separate area'......as those currently scared of knife crime in certain areas of London can attest to.

For sure. I have also experienced the 'benefits' of multi culture first hand. Lost a fair bit of blood in the process.

It certainly explains some of why I know quite a lot about human nature whilst you're still wet behind the ears me lad.
